Residents in the Papua New Guinea capital Port Moresby have taken to the streets to protest against mandatory vaccination.
This is despite the protest being disapproved by Police Commissioner David Manning who is also the Covid-19 Pandemic Controller.
He issued a statement on Friday that any protest would be deemed illegal and persons sponsoring it or misinforming people that vaccination was mandatory would be prosecuted.
Journalist Miriam Zarriga has posted on social media for people to avoid the streets leading to Goodwit Street where the Australian High Commission is. This street leads to Parliament.
Police have beefed up presence on the streets.
Last week a protest against vaccination was held in Lae.
There were reports of cars being damaged as well.
